A posting on the Northern Brewer site highlighted the Denver club's
efforts on whiskey barrel conditioning as a club project. Members brew
the same recipe and fill a 55-gallon cask for conditioning. Each brewer
chipped in $15 to purchase the $150 cask. They're brewing a barleywine
and an Imperial stout.

Does this have any appeal to MHB members? If people are interested, I'd
be willing to explore the price and logistics of getting a whiskey
barrel. A feature on barrel conditioning is in the current issue of
BYO.
